A TIFF converter is a piece of image editing software that converts files such as SVGs, JPGs and PNGs into the TIFF file type. Because TIFF has options for loss-less compression, there is no need for degradation of image quality when converting images to the format.

TIFF consists of multiple image formats combined into one, using tags to determine its attributes. While TIFF is a very old format that Adobe has not updated for more than a decade, its universal compatibility makes it an ideal file type, and this compatibility also makes its conversion relatively straightforward. The conversion software does not usually need to change the image itself, instead simply places a wrapper around the image and changes its associated metadata.

It is easy to find a TIFF converter. Nearly every modern image program, including various freeware, has options for saving in TIFF. Online conversion software that makes images into TIFF is also easily accessible from here.
